Hi,
        After applying the patch, did you run 'autoreconf' to regenerate
Makefile.in?  I've been testing on Mac OS X 10.4.8.  Also, when I
configure'd, I didn't have to pass the -srcdir argument, but that should
make no difference (configure figures it out).

my commands:
tar xzvf aspell-0.60.5.tar.gz
cd aspell-0.60-5
patch -p1 < ../aspell-0.60.5.patch
autoreconf
mkdir build
cd build
../configure CFLAGS="-g -O3" CXXFLAGS="-g -O3" -C
make
make check
...

Does it still fail for you?
